Sydney Tower

Arriving at the end of our journey!

Our journey to the city of Sydney finishes at Sydney Tower. This tower is 309 metre high and it is the city's tallest building and one of its great landmarks (other than the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, of course).

Lifts take visitors to the observation deck at the top or to Skywalk, a glass-floor viewing platform. Tourist and visitors can enjoy panoramic views of Sydney and its surrounding neighbourhoods or even have something to eat at the restaurants or the café. They can also have a 4D cinema experience.

At the end of the session, you will have:

visited Sydney Tower.
listened to a conversation about different Australian cities.
reflected on all the different tasks you have worked on at the Learning Diary.
